The only thing I want to change on mine are the tuners, so thanks for this video, it's a great help. Have you ever considered putting a coil splitter on so you can get a singe coil effect on the pickups?
I agree especially after looking at the tuners side by side... They are identical other than the tuning key and the locking mechinism. Would not specifically recommend that upgrade.
I got a set of Gotoh Maglock Kluson style locking tuners for mine. They’re the SD 90’s. They cost about $70. They’re drop in replacements. Mine are nickel with black tuning keys, so they look just like the stock tuners. Locking wheel is on the back.
@@dimetriusrasul You need to look for the vintage ream (11/32”). Kluson also make a Revolution series that are locking that will also fit. Make sure you’re getting the set for vintage size holes and you’re ok.
I just ordered the exact same tuners for my Zach Meyer. Both are supposed to show up Friday. I'm about to chew through my leash waiting until then. Later tater. xxxooo dc
Was there any update on the situation with the humbucker rings? Just got myself this guitar the other day and plan on changing all the black to cream white too
i ran into the same issue with my pickup rings. why they decide to make one model have different size rings is beyond me. looking forward to see what they say back to you
@@itsanthonybest Hi Anthony, Do you know if PRS already release the Pickup Rings? I found in their page the Universal Angle Rings. Those are the ones that fit? Great Review by the way!
Any news on the cream pickguard rings? I called PRS and Stewmac and they seem to believe the old model rings will fit. So I bought them and they do not fit!
Doing some research before purchasing some locking tuners. You mentioned you didnt change the bushings. Some forums talk about having to ream a bit. When you replaced the tuners without replacing the bushings, i assume you didnt have to make any adjustments? Just screw em in n good to go ?
I can't seem to find those specific locking tuners on the PRS website. Could you possibly link to where you got those? Great upgrades! I just got my ZM SE for Father's Day!
Hi Anthony, I like the look of the white tuner buttons - when you get the cream pickup rings on there that's going to look really nice. Thanks for the update on the nut material - one less thing to worry about. Probably makes sense in a supply chain and part number sense to use the same nut everywhere. And worth it, even if the part is more expensive, just in the reduction of hassle factor. Looks like new strings are a must - I'll see how the stock ones feel, but I have some of my regular D'Addario XL strings in 10-46 ready to go as this will stay in standard E. (Or maybe try some fancy Nanoweb/Elixir strings on it) My other guitar will now be set up for drop tuning as it has EMG 81/60's in it. I may look at getting the PRS core knobs on it since they look a bit nicer. Are they also a bit smaller in diameter?
Are you still on the same 9 gauge strings that came stock or did you update to a different gauge? How is the cut of the nut because I have had issues with mine grabbing a lot; did you have to adjust it?
My switch is broken top and middle position fine but bottom cut's right out. The shop I bought it from is an hour away and I already took it back once. The guitar is good but support is not level A.
I don’t know if they changed the pups from the last version (I don’t think they did) but, for me, that was the first change. I thought they were pretty muddy.
As for the neighbors...I "saw" [and heard the whole thing! If ya need a witness.]. I have had similar noisy neighbor issues. Btw...never move next door to a drummer...terrible drummer or a real pro...doesn't matter! Intolerable. Soundproofing, anyone...dah?!!!
